Survival at Sea: I Became Number One by Growing Mushrooms

"That guy is amazing!" Robert exclaimed.

"Of course, my sister killed the High Priest in just a few moves, she's incredibly strong," Li Ming said.

Robert asked with some curiosity, "Is the big boss your biological sister?"

Li Ming shook his head awkwardly: "No, but the boss treats me like a real older sister."

Robert nodded and said, "That's great. I'd also like to have the opportunity to make friends with a big shot."

As they chatted, they walked inside. Li Ming said, "Luo Bo, you'll come with us later. My sister and the others will attack the traps, and we'll deal with the source of the natural disaster."

Robert was even more surprised; he hadn't expected that there would be separate groups of just these few people.

Robert didn't say anything, just nodded, and came to a fork in the road. Xu Jiawei and Si Yunming went to the other side, while Robert continued to walk forward with Li Ming and the others.

Soon they arrived at that familiar temple, that familiar high priest; everything was so familiar.

The high priest paused, clearly recognizing Robert, and said, "You got away last time, and you dare to come back!" With that, he attacked Robert directly.

Robert immediately erected a protective shield and looked at the three, saying, "We need to attack quickly, or other high priests will come to our aid!"

"Don't worry, my sister's here. Besides, you've been here before," Li Ming said, adopting an attack stance.

Robert sighed with a hint of helplessness, "Yeah, I almost got ganged up on and beaten to death by several high priests."

"Radish, don't worry, Xiao Xu and the others have taken care of it," Zhang Yunting said.

Bai Yu chimed in, "We just need to take care of things here."

The group was besieging the High Priest when Robert joined them, providing light damage, which immediately made things much easier for Li Ming and the others.

She felt a pang of envy: "That's great. If only I were also of the Light attribute, I wouldn't have had such a difficult time before."

"Just think about it. Light attribute is so rare, even rarer than dark attribute. Luo Bo is only the second person with light attribute that we've encountered," Zhang Yunting said.

"Brother Zhang, you've seen so much, and you've only seen two?" Bai Yu asked curiously.

Zhang Yunting shook his head and said, "I saw one before, but he died very quickly. It seems like their game difficulty is higher than ours. They are often surrounded by monsters and it's hard for them to survive."

The group fell silent for a moment, their gazes falling on Robert with a mixture of sympathy and curiosity. How had this man survived?

Robert gave a wry smile: "Thanks to my compassion back then, I shared my food with a few people who were starving to death. I earned a title and a healing skill, which is how I survived."

Xu Jiawei acquired the Light attribute later, so she naturally didn't know how difficult it was for people with the Light attribute to live at the beginning. It's just fortunate that with Xu Jiawei's abnormal luck, she definitely wouldn't have survived until now.

The group chatted as they dealt with the high priest with ease, much to the high priest's chagrin. Soon, Robert noticed his experience points had increased dramatically. What was going on? They hadn't killed the high priest yet, so he looked at the others questioningly.

Bai Yu said, "Let's hurry up, Jiawei has already killed all those high priests in the trap." Bai Yu urged.

Robert found out the reason and silently sped up, not wanting to be a burden. However, unbeknownst to her, her mission was already complete. She thought only kills she personally committed counted, but she didn't expect that kills by the team also counted.

With Robert's help, the group dealt with the High Priest before Xu Jiawei even arrived. Robert immediately opened his mission interface, and sure enough, the mission was completed and the level interface showed that he could break through. He excitedly clicked to break through.

Her racial interface also showed that she could evolve. Robert took a deep breath, suppressing the impulse in his heart. Now was not the time to break through. He needed to find a safe place to do so.

Xu Jiawei arrived quickly. Seeing that her partner had already resolved the issue, she wasn't surprised. Instead, she turned her attention to Robert.

"You've completed your mission?" Robert nodded, looking at Xu Jiawei excitedly.

"Thank you. If it weren't for you, my mission might have been stuck for a long time."

"That's good. Let's continue to the next source of natural disasters." Xu Jiawei was not prepared to wait for Robert to break through. She couldn't waste any more time. She had already wasted a whole day yesterday, and time was of the essence.

Robert didn't mention it, but just followed silently. A day later, Robert went from excitement to calm, then to exhaustion, and now he was numb. Aren't these people human? Don't these people need rest?

Even though she bought energy potions from the big shot, she was still a bit dazed and her head was swollen. In the end, she had no choice but to temporarily leave the team and go back to break through.

Xu Jiawei understood that her condition was due to severe depletion of her soul value. She needed to rest, and that if her race were to improve, her attributes would also increase.

Robert fled as if he were running away. Xu Jiawei and the others continued to farm the Cataclysmic Source Points. Everyone had made great progress in the past few days. Bai Yu and Zhang Yunting had reached level 40 one after another, while Li Ming had reached level 39, and Si Yunming had also reached level 49 and would soon reach level 50.

However, the training camp was about to begin, and they had to go back. Everyone was still a little reluctant to leave.

But I have to go back. The training camp can't start without them. Isn't that a scam?

So the group started heading back, while Robert, having just broken through to the next level, slept for two days. He was about to start training camp when he woke up, so he didn't come to find Xu Jiawei and the others.

The officials also asked Robert if he would be willing to be an instructor, but he declined because he felt he could learn more from Xu Jiawei.

However, after the negotiator explained that Xu Jiawei would only train for 2 hours and then have free time, while as a trainee he would have to train for 12 hours a day and therefore unable to go to see Xu Jiawei, Robert immediately agreed.

The number of temporary instructors has increased to three. They take turns teaching, one person per day, so there is always one person missing each day. Fortunately, even if Xu Jiawei is not around, Robert can still assist Si Yunming, and the two of them can solve the traps. Especially after Robert reached level 40, his attributes reached more than 300, but this attribute is still not as good as Xu Jiawei and Si Yunming.

After all, Si Yunming has equipment that can increase attribute points, Xu Jiawei has mushrooms, but Robert doesn't.

After discussing the future tactics, the people who had signed up arrived one after another. Xu Jiawei checked and found that nearly 10,000 people had signed up. Even if some changed their minds or didn't want to come, there should still be close to 9,000 people left.

When the bell rang at seven o'clock in the morning for the training camp, a total of 8978 people arrived. Looking at this densely packed crowd of people, which looked like ants, Xu Jiawei almost had a phobia of trypophobia.

Before the training camp, a mobilization meeting was to be held. The leaders asked Xu Jiawei to say a few words. Xu Jiawei didn't know what to say. Fortunately, the leaders were very professional and had prepared a speech in advance. Xu Jiawei just had to read the speech.

As soon as Xu Jiawei stepped onto the stage, she caused a stir and uproar.

This is the powerful and influential figure she once was. Her appearance is so different from the image everyone has of her. In their minds, a powerful figure should be 1.8 meters tall with eight-pack abs.

Seeing Xu Jiawei's appearance, many restless people had the idea of ​​challenging the number one on the leaderboard, since Xu Jiawei looked very weak.
